Abstract
Conventions and laws introduced over the last decade make it nearly impossible for a genuine refugee to reach Europe legally. Once arrived they face an application process for asylum which is of a quite complex nature and it is never easy to be accepted as an asylum-seeker. buzzbee.tv is proposing a service which concentrates on this current situation, in which many asylum-seekers are often forced into an illegal existance. buzzbee.tvs structure tries to allow the immigrants to move step by step into the daily life of the local community where they hope to find a new home. The interactive mediaformat provides a service that mainly relies on shared knowledge and experiences of the users themselves. While building up a mental backing with the people who understands the individual background better than anybody else, local citizens are getting more and more involved. The intention of buzzbee.tv is not only to appeal to the solidarity with asylum-seekers but to provide a platform where interests of local citizens and asylum-seekers are dealt with a maximum grade of openness.
